Students officially matriculated in Baruch=E2=80=99s graduate programs a= re allowed to register for courses. Once admitted to a graduate program (th= is includes the period between acceptance by and registration at Baruch), s= tudents cannot take undergraduate courses in order to waive 9000-level prel= iminary requirements. Concurrent acceptance to and enrollment in a second u= ndergraduate degree program and a graduate-level program are not permitted.= Withdrawal from one program is a condition for admission to or continued r= egistration in another program.
The Office of Graduate Programs provides administrative and curricular s= ervices to students enrolled in programs in the Zicklin School of Business.=
Advisement for students in the Arts Administration, Financial Engi= neering, Corporate Communication, Industrial/Organizational Psychology= , and Mental Health Counseling graduate programs is provided by members of = the faculty. Appointments can be made through the Office of Graduate Studie= s at 646-312-4490.
The Office of Student Affairs and Graduate Admissions provides administr= ative and curricular services to graduate students enrolled in programs in = the Marxe School of Public and International Affairs. Students entering pro= grams in the Marxe School of Public and International Affairs will receive = an evaluation of preliminary course requirements to aid in their first regi= stration at Baruch. During the first semester of attendance, students are e= ncouraged to meet with an advisor from the office to prepare a program for = the remaining course of study. The program is a plan of study devised by th= e student in consultation with the advisor regarding the courses to be comp= leted for the degree. For information regarding student services, contact t= he Office of Student Affairs and Graduate Admissions, Marxe School of Publi= c and International Affairs, at 646-660-6750.
A program of four 9000-level courses (12 credits) is considered the mini= mum full-time graduate course load. A program load of three 9000-level= courses (9 credits) is considered the minimum full-time graduate course lo= ad for the following Weissman School of Arts and Sciences programs: MA= in Arts Administration; MA in Corporate Communication; MS in Financial Eng= ineering; and MS in Industrial and Organizational Psychology. A program loa= d of nine (9) credits is considered the minimum full-time graduate course l= oad for Zicklin School of Business MBA and MS students. Students in Zi= cklin's full-time cohort MBA program and executive program will adhere to t= he cohort structure of these programs. Six credits is the maximum full= -time load each summer session. Registration for credits in excess of these= limits will not be permitted without advance approval by the school dean. = Generally, 6 to 8 credits is the recommended course load for students worki= ng 35 hours or more per week.
Students are expected to enroll in courses that are required to complete= their degree. Enrollment in courses outside the required program is subjec= t to availability of space.
Students who have chosen a major field or a degree objective and wish to= change it at a later date may do so, subject to the approval of the approp= riate graduate office. Students on F-1 and J-1 visas must also see the Inte= rnational Student Service Center for appropriate approvals to remain in sta= tus.
Students who change their degree objective or major field will be subjec= t to the admission requirements of the new curriculum pertaining to the new= major field, including core and preliminary requirements. Courses successf= ully completed under the student=E2=80=99s original program may be transfer= red to the new program only if they are applicable. Academic deficiencies a= re carried over from one program to another (e.g., a student on probation u= nder the original program remains on probation under the new program).
If a student=E2=80=99s new major carries a different degree objective, t= he student must file an application for a change in degree objective in the= appropriate graduate office and, if necessary, take the appropriate admiss= ion test. Once accepted for the new degree, the student should make an appo= intment with an advisor in the appropriate graduate office and request a ne= w program.
A required (approved) program may not be changed without written permiss= ion from the appropriate graduate office and school dean.
To change required (approved) courses, students complete an Application = for Program Revision Form and file it with their graduate office. A copy of= the revised program will be sent to the student after it has been approved= .
Program changes should be made prior to registering for courses.
Students who feel that they have sufficient background in any of the pre= liminary requirements but have not had the courses waived may apply to take= a written qualifying examination. The application may be obtained at the a= ppropriate graduate studies office. Students pay the listed fee, retur= n the completed form to the appropriate graduate office, and contact the de= partment for the time and place of the examination.
A grade of C- or better is required to waive 8000-level preliminary requ= irement courses. A grade of B- or better is required to waive 9000-level pr= eliminary requirement courses.
A qualifying examination may not be repeated. Students are not eligible = to take a qualifying examination in a graduate course they have taken at Ba= ruch and failed.
Students may request to transfer up to 12 credits of course work. Z= icklin MBA students following the 57-credit MBA should review prior bulleti= ns for the transfer credit policy. Zicklin Evening MBA students following t= he 48-credit MBA may not transfer more than 9 credits of course w= ork towards functional skills and elective courses (none towards found= ational). MBA in accountancy students may transfer up to 14 credits, w= ith no more than two courses (6=E2=80=938 credits) applied toward the major= (none towards foundational). Zicklin Full-Time MBA students may transfer u= p to 9 credits of electives only (none towards foundational or functional).= One-Year MBA students may not transfer any credits. Zicklin MS= students may not transfer more than two courses (no more than 8 credits)&n= bsp;toward their degree requirements. MPA students may not transfer courses= toward their core requirements. Courses must have been completed within fi= ve years of a student=E2=80=99s enrollment at Baruch College. All students = should consult their appropriate graduate office for advisement.
When a student intends to interrupt studies at Baruch College and not do= work at any other institution, he or she is on a leave of absence. During = the period in which the leave of absence is in effect, the student may take= no course work, may receive no credits for any course work, and may not gr= aduate. However, work toward the completion of an incomplete grade (INC) ma= y be done during a leave of absence.
Students who interrupt their graduate studies for one or more semesters = must file for re-entry using the following form: Re-entry form prior to the term in which they p= lan to return. The six-year time period for completion of the requirements = for the master=E2=80=99s degree will be extended no more than two semesters= for such nonattendance.
If the original six-year period and two additional semesters have expire= d, the student must apply to the appropriate graduate committee on academic= standing for a time extension. In some instances, an extension of time may= require a review of the student=E2=80=99s original program for currency of= subject matter. Additional courses may be required to complete the degree.=
Students who enroll for courses and find it impossible to continue with = one or more of the courses must withdraw using CUNYfirst self-service. Fail= ure to properly withdraw from a course will result in an F grade.
Students who drop all courses during the refund period must file a = re-entry application. if this occurs during the stu= dent=E2=80=99s first semester, the student will need to file a new applicat= ion with the appropriate office of graduate admissions. International= students need to obtain approval from the International Student Service Ce= nter prior to dropping any course.
Currently enrolled students who find that they will not be able to compl= ete the degree requirements within the specified time limit (six years) and= who wish an extension must apply for an extension of the time limit with t= he appropriate graduate office; the reason for the extension and the length= of time required must be indicated in the request. The request must be app= roved by the appropriate graduate committee on academic standing
A graduate student must file a graduation application for the degre= e in the semester in which all the requirements for the degree will be comp= leted. This application can be filed at the Registrar=E2=80=99s Office or u= sing the application within CUNYfirst (see Academic Calendar in the Sc= hedule of Classes for due dates). While applications submitted after the de= adline for a semester will be processed, the names of degree candidates who= submit late applications in the spring semester will not appear in the Com= mencement Program. A student cannot be recommended for the degree at the cl= ose of the semester without having submitted an application.
A master=E2=80=99s degree shall normally require a minimum of one academ= ic year of full-time graduate-level study, or its equivalent in part-time s= tudy, with an accumulation of not less than 30 semester hours.
An application for a degree will not be carried forward from one semeste= r to the next. A new application card must be filed for the term in which t= he degree is actually awarded.
Students must maintain matriculated status during the semester in which = they obtain their degree if they are not registered for courses.
They must contact the Registrar=E2=80=99s Office at the beginning of the= semester in which they plan to take their degree. After a review of the st= udent=E2=80=99s record the student will be charged the maintenance of matri= culation fee and a re-entry application fee
Students who wish to take additional courses after meeting their origina= l degree requirements must file a new application for admission to graduate= school. Students who have completed an MBA degree and who wish to take add= itional courses should consider one of the MS programs, an MPA, or the Post= -Master=E2=80=99s Certificate Program. Students applying for a second degre= e must meet current admission requirements.
Baruch uses a 4.0 grade point average (GPA) calculation to determine a s= tudent=E2=80=99s academic standing. All grades for 9000- level courses are = used in calculating the GPA.
Grades for graduate courses are indicated as follows:
Grade | Quality Value Per Credit |
---|---|
A | 4.0 grade points |
A- | 3.7 grade points |
B+ | 3.3 grade points |
B | 3.0 grade points |
B- | 2.7 grade points |
C+ | 2.3 grade points |
C |
2.0 grade points |
C- | 1.7 grade points |
F | 0.0 grade points |
The grade of F is computed in the GPA. A failed course must be repeated = if it is a required course in the student=E2=80=99s program. Students who r= epeat a failed course and earn a grade of B- or better may petition to drop= the grade of F from the computation of the grade point average; the grade = of F will remain on the transcript. Only one F grade may be dropped fr= om the calculation of the grade point average. Petitions may be submitted t= o the registrar.
*Grades of D and D+ are not assigned to graduate courses.
W | Withdrew without penalty. Student must apply for= this grade at the Registrar=E2=80=99s Office within a specified period (se= e Baruch College Academic Calendar in the Schedule of Classes). |
WA | Administrative withdrawal (no academic penalty).= Given to new students who fail to comply with New York Public Health Law 2= 165 within the announced grace period. |
WN | Never attended. |
AUD | No credit. |
INC | Student must be doing passing work to obtain ins= tructor=E2=80=99s permission for this grade. The grade must be resolved by = the end of the final examination period of the subsequent semester, or it b= ecomes a grade of FIN, the equivalent of F. |
NC | No credit. Used for courses taken under the pass= / no credit option. Also used to indicate the student received a course gra= de below C-. The course must be repeated in order to receive credit. Not in= cluded in the GPA. |
P | Passing. Valid grade for courses taken under the= pass/no credit option. Grades of P are not calculated in the GPA, but cred= its earned are counted toward the degree. |
PEN | Grade pending (used when a grade is under review= for possible infraction of academic integrity standards). |
Once filed, a grade can be changed only on the recommendation of the ins= tructor. Such recommendation must have the approval of the department chair= person and the appropriate school dean. Once a grade has been submitted, st= udents may not do extra work to improve that grade.
Students may elect to take one course for degree credit to be graded on = a pass/no credit basis. The pass/no credit option cannot be used for course= s in the student=E2=80=99s major or specialization.
The following illustration shows how a student who has attempted 27 cred= its should compute his/her grade point average on a 4.0 basis.
Grade | Value | Indexible Credits | Grade Points | ||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
A | =3D | 4.0 | X | 12 | 48.0 |
B+ | =3D | 3.3 | X | 6 | 19.8 |
B | =3D | 3.0 | X | 6 | 18.0 |
F* | =3D | 0.0 | X | 3 | 0.0 |
&n= bsp; | &n= bsp; | &n= bsp; | &n= bsp; | 27= | 85= .8 |
*Includes unresolved INC grades
Divide the total grade points by the total indexible credits to obtain t= he grade point average: 85.8/27 =3D 3.17 on 27 indexible credits.
A registered student in good academic standing may attend classes as an = auditor.
The student must request this status from the registrar when registering= for the course. The student will receive the grade AUD: no credit is grant= ed, the course cannot be repeated for credit at a later date, nor can it be= converted to a letter grade at a later date. Full tuition is applicable. I= nstructors are advised that auditors are not required to complete any of th= e assignments in their courses.
Students may apply to audit a course during Late Registration only. This= ensures that students who need the course for their degree programs are gi= ven priority.
Students must be doing passing work to obtain an instructor=E2=80=99s pe= rmission to receive a grade of incomplete (INC).
A grade of incomplete (INC) received in the fall semester must be resolv= ed by the end of the following spring semester. A grade of INC received in = the spring semester or summer term must be resolved by the end of the follo= wing fall semester.
Students who receive these grades may not register for or attend (=E2=80= =9Csit in=E2=80=9D) any classes of the course in the following semester.
To resolve incomplete (INC) grades issued for missing course work, the s= tudent should meet with the instructor and arrange to complete the requirem= ents for a letter grade before the expiration of the following semester.
Make-up exams will be given during the midterm and final exam periods. R= efer to the Academic Calendar in the Schedule of Classes for application de= adlines.
An unresolved INC grade will be converted to FIN and calculated as an F = in the computation of the cumulative GPA after the grace period.
Cross-listed courses cannot be taken for credit more than once without p= rior approval. The existence of a cross-listed course is indicated by a par= enthetical course number that follows the departmental course number and pr= ecedes the course title.
A student who is accepted for graduate work at Baruch College is require= d to maintain an average of B (3.0 GPA) in all graduate courses taken.
While every effort is made to keep the students informed of their academ= ic standing, it is the students=E2=80=99 responsibility to adhere to these = regulations.
Students who have completed the credits required for the degree with an = average below 3.0 must have written permission from their dean to take any = additional course work. Additional course work beyond 6 credits will not be= permitted.
Grades in preliminary courses that have been waived may never be used to= improve the GPA.
Grades received in required 8000-level courses are not included in the g= rade point average. These courses may not be used as elective credits. All = 9000-level courses taken outside of the official program will be calculated= into the GPA, although credits may not be counted toward fulfilling degree= requirements. Grades in courses that duplicate prior course work will not = be counted in the GPA.
Students are considered to be on academic probation if their grade point= average falls below the acceptable level indicated below:
Credits Earned | Minimum GPA |
---|---|
6 and above | 3.0 |
Students on probation will be debarred (dismissed) if, after attempting = a maximum of 12 additional credits, their cumulative grade point average re= mains below the required 3.0. In addition, a grade point average greater th= an or equal to 3.0 per semester must be maintained during the 12 credits of= probation. Students on academic probation whose grade point average falls = below 3.0 will be debarred whether or not 12 credits have been completed. I= NC grades are not permitted.
Students in Full-Time MBA, Executive MBA, MPA, and MS programs are expec= ted to adhere to the general policies governing academic probation, with th= e following exceptions.
Students are considered to be on probation if their grade point average = falls below the acceptable level indicated:
Credits Earned | Minimum GPA |
---|---|
9 (one trimester) and above | 3.0 |
Students will be debarred (dismissed) if, after a maximum of two trimest= ers (18 credits) on probation, their academic performance remains below the= acceptable level.
Students are considered to be on probation if their grade point average = falls below the acceptable level indicated:
